The Unofficial Speak Out Wireless Canada Consumer Page - Topic: Nexus One and web browsing https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/phone-features/nexus-one-and-web-browsing/ Simple:Press Version 5.7.5.3 bridonca on Nexus One and web browsing https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/phone-features/nexus-one-and-web-browsing/page-2/#p23607 Phone/Device Issues and Features https://www.speakoutwireless.ca/speak/phone-features/nexus-one-and-web-browsing/page-2/#p23607 VOIP will not work at all with Speakout data. Even Skype is blocked, and that is really hard to block.

With unrooted Android phones, you can browse web pages with Speakout data, and not much else. When you root the phone, you are able to get some more apps working.

Just keep in mind the data plan is $10 for a reason. I think it is worth it, but you would need to accept the limitations for what they are.

I didn't have enough time to troubleshoot the data connection problem, so I cancelled the package within 3 days testing grace period. I will try again in a few weeks when I get more time.

I was hoping to be able to use that data connection to use SIP phone on the nexus s and greatly reduce my communication cost. Of course I would use my home wi-fi connection (shaw cable) while at home to reduce excessive use of SO network, and only use the data connection while I am away from home or other free wi-fi. Monthly $10 for unlimited voice and data sounds very tempting, if it can be achieved. Has anyone tried and been able to make this idea successful?

the settings as described in the post work fine. I am using these on my Nexus One (with SO 3G now, not Edge any more) and I just tested these on a Galaxy Mini (also a Samsung as yours).
Make sure the proxy is properly set and that the APN is activated.
And as you probably know, with SO only web works, no Gmail clients etc. Everything that uses a port other than port 80 won't work.

I bought nexus S from bestbuy, but did not use the koodo sim card that came with it.
Popped in a new SO card in it. Called customer service to add data package.
Cellphone works fine, but I couldn't get internet connection with any of the ip addresses (mentioned here) for goam.com

Maybe the nexus S for koodo is different from others? I don't know.

Can anyone suggest me what to try ?

I do have Android 2.2 and the Petro Can browsing is fine with it, but it would be much more acceptable if the apps all worked. It is the one thing that is pushing me toward Rogers and the 3G connection. I could live with Petro Can's 2G, Edge, if the apps functioned. Google Maps works in a choppy fashion, but virtually nothing else does.

Reading other posts, I think it is a safe bet you will need the latest Android 2.2 Froyo release to have a reliable experience with Petro Canada though.

Does anyone have any ideas?

- everything that uses port 80 (and considers the proxy) works
- everything else does not (even the native google maps app doesn't)

It is fully unlocked, It is OS Froyo.

I bought a Speak Out SIM to use when in Canada, and pretty much threw out the cheap Nokia phone. The SIM works immediately in my N1 for voice, but i followed some settings from this thread, and got "data" to work...in a limited way.

Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names

Name: Speak Out
APN: goam.com
Proxy: 10.128.1.69
Port: 80
User: wapuser1
Pwd: wap
no other field used

I set it to 2G only, but only to save battery. Speak Out is 2G EDGE whether I set that switch or not.

The built-in browser worked immediately (no reboot).
Some other apps work, but very limited in scope. Anything that uses basic web (http and port 80) content works, most other apps do not.

Thanks for the settings.

Yes, the standard web broser (Safari)

Hi, this thread is useful, but please, there is NO SAFARI browser on any Android phone!!

Please tell me why there would be an Apple-branded browser on arch-rival Google's phone operating system?!

Both the iPhone and the Android phones use browsers based on a great open-source rendering engine called "webkit". Thus, there are similarities at the core, but Safari is an Apple software product.

Port 443 is blocked by rogers of course.

With Android 2.2 the Nexus One accepts the proxy settings (to be configured in the general Nexus settings under Wireless&Networks/MobileNetwork/AccesspointNames) and the browser works fine then.
No specific settings required in the stock browser (Safari) itself .

Gmail still doesn't work, but IMHO that's obvious since it doesn't use port 80.

Are you saying that with 2.2, your stock supplied N1 browser works with the settings we had to put into Fennec? Can we now put them into the phone and not the Fennec browser?

I just received the official update to Android 2.2 (build FRF91) for my non-rooted stock phone.
The proxy settings are now considered, all works fine 🙂

this is an excellent pointer, finally there is an explanation of the problem cause, and finally I got it working !!

In summary:
- Nexus1 applications do not consider the proxy settings, one has to configure the proxy in the browser
- Such configuration is not possible in the Safari Browser that is installed as the default
- It is prossible however, when using Mozilla Fennec browser (still in alpha)

I hope the official Android 2.2 that is coming to Nexus1 soon fixes the proxy problem as well.

Thanks RZP, I appreciate your help solving this problem.

It works for my N1. It's the only way I've been able to use the Petro Can UMB. The problem is that you have to reenter the configs in Fennec every time you power up, and the apps are not available, but these glitches will soon be fixed by Fennec we hope.

It just does not connect.

This Nexus works with Fido Sim, so data service is generally OK. I just can't get it to work w/ SO.

See what that does for above settings replacing port 80 with 8080.
